Title: safari tank
Post by: tony13 on January 27, 2009, 12,00:58 AM

Hello fellow riders, im searching far and wide for a safari tank to suit a WR 250 2007 Model. Either 12 or 15 litre.
Anyone out their knowing of one please contact me.

Cheers, Tony!

Hi,
When I searched around for tanks the choices I found were an IMS 11.8L or the Safari 15.5L. New pricing could be haggled down to about $400 in each case. However the Safari means you either refit the original plastic radiator guards or modify the metal ones (assuming they can be modified).
The IMS tank needs YZ shrouds (this is an additional cost as WR one's don't fit) and in most cases it seems you dont have to modify the aluminium radiator guards. BTW the price difference betwwen a new and second hand tank seems to be around $90 to $120.

I have the same bike and run a Safari 15L tank which is rarely filley past 12L unless were off on a long ride.
Don't know of any second hand ones at the moment.

Brad
